I have a 2019 limited and i'm on my third set of nozzles . They just stop spraying and only a little fluid comes out. I took the last set apart and there is a silicone like check valve with a spring inside. The orange silicone like rubber swells up and then no fluid can pass. i have used nothing but store bought washer fluid . I took the check valves out and now they work great. Anybody else have any issues with the nozzles?

I have never heard of that, and haven't ever looked that close to see those valves. In my thoughts, in the old days, nozzles would let water into them, and freeze in winter climates. They really don't do that anymore, so valves are to prevent water in? If so, it says you live in Florida, so you should be ok as long as they work.
